get on a bus early this evening in southeast washington, but only one of them get out alive. >> it's sad, i don't understand. >> reporter: it happened near the intersection of 18th street and minnesota avenue in southeast washington. >> it's a pretty quiet neighborhood. never had a problem. >> reporter: that's where the police chief says that a woman was getting on a bus with her young daughter. >> the child believed to be under the age of three. >> when a man came up behind them. >> once they got on the bus, a male subject followed close behind her and opened fire into the bus. >> reporter: the woman was hit several times and pronounced dead on the bus. >> it looked like she was targeted. >> reporter: while the woman's daughter may have been grazed by a bullet was rushed to the nearby hospital. >> there's some sort of a wound to the baby. >> reporter: long-time residence here. >> i've been living on this corner here raising my corner. >> reporter: said they were absolutely stunned by the

sickening spasm of violence. >> i don't believe it. while they renewed her call for increased security for choices. >> we've been talking and discussing the violence on the streets, how it's getting worse. how we're putting danger all the time. police say they are now talking to several people that might have been involved in the shooting. so should you have any information, you are asked to call d.c. police at 202-727- 9099. bruce? >> thanks for that. the mri results are in tonight and the news is good when you consider the hit that rg3 took on during the win at fedex field today. we've got more on the super star's injury. >> reporter: yes, redskins

nation held their breath when it happened. now you can let out somewhat of a big sigh of relief. a redskins spokesperson tonight said that the mri results on rg3's knees -- knee were negative. it's a knee sprain. here is the play you see him limping there. he tries to go down, but couldn't finish the drive. a back-up qb comes on in to save the day with this touchdown pass. and then he ran the two-point conversion himself to tie the game. and the left tackle as they said after the game that cousins was cool, calm, collected in that huddle. >> i could see he was limping after the second big completion. and i didn't know what to do, i

tried to find coach shanahan to let them make the call as he said where is kirk? and i said okay, go out there take the spot. >> the preparation has been great throughout the whole year. he's very on top of everything. he went in there. he didn't miss a beat. >> after i was already down, my leg got hit. it was a pretty painful experience. >> so good news for rg3. mike shanahan will talk more about it on the weekly press conference. they could feel a little more confident in having kirk cousins under center if griffin can't go on sunday. every time i watch that, i make strange noises upstairs. they think i'm weird. but it just gets me. >> yes, i think that most people, they want him healthy. >> of course. >> shanahan took a lot of slack too for dropping cousins.

right. we saw him sit out against that game, but it shows that he is okay. today to come in cold to do that has been a pretty good draft craft for rg3. you have al fred morris with another 100-yard game and richard crawford, the guy with the punt return that set up the field goal. it's his first game, the debut as a redskins. so they are looking pretty good right now. >> you're pumped up. that's why i do this job and i love it. it was a great game to cover. >> thanks a lot. what a game. a battle of the beltways. they watched that game in laurel maryland today. >> is this a redskins bar or a

raven's bar? >> nowhere to come. i know where to come now. >> it's the ravens today. tomorrow who knows. >> it'll be redskins and ravens. turning now to the dallas cowboys defensive linemen. released from jail after posting a half million dollar bond. he was drunk at the wheel when his car crashed early yesterday, killing jerry brown, his teammate and passenger in that car. he said he is devastated filled with grief and grief stricken for his family and friends and all those blessed enough to have known him. i will live with this horrific and tragic loss every day for the rest of my life. the cowboy's quarterback talked about the crash today. >> i did some things that are very difficult to deal with. people will deal with it in different ways and you just need to stay together as a football team, as a family, and

a friend and a teammate. >> they plan to hold a memorial for jerry brown on tuesday. a convenience store is robbed at gunpoint in broad daylight today. two employees were inside the southwest d.c. time at that time. showing us the surveillance tape and report that you'll only see here on 9. >> so he told you to get down on the ground like that? >> yeah. >> and you're thinking that you're going to get shot? >> yeah. >> reporter: shortly after abdul opened up his family business, the store around 8:00 on sunday morning, a man storms in waving a gun. the crook tells him to get down on the ground. you can see him then run off. a second man enters the store as he is putting on gloves with a red backpack so he could stuff the money and cigarettes he's about to steal.

his cousin opens up -- opens up the register for them. the owner had been in the process of making these upgrades to their security with the bullet proof glass and the door has not been put on yet. all of these addions, because they had been robbed before. last december that is. he says that two men robbed them last year around christmas. he doesn't believe that the same man hit them twice, but he says he comes to work, hears the familiar door open. not knowing if his life will be threatened again. >> i'm okay now. >> reporter: in southeast, surae chinn, 9news. >> and they said that the suspects are still at large tonight. a member of a u.s. special operations team has been killed during a weekend rescue mission in afghanistan. the mission freed the doctor abducted by the taliban just five days ago. president barack obama praised the special forces on sunday,

saying that it was characteristic of the extraordinary courage, skills, patriotism. they said that joseph was rescued after the intelligence shows he was in danger of an injury or possible debt. and in a statement, the president says of the fallen soldier that he gave his life for a fellow american and he and his teammates remind us once more of the selfless service that allows our nation to stay strong, stay safe, and free. still ahead on 9news this sunday night. terrifying moments outside an airport where a man rams a vehicle and then opens fire. finally, president barack obama and house speaker boehner meet. there's a possible movement tonight in the fiscal cliff stand off. we'll have the lathe coming up. take a look at that fog. light mist and drizzle here on the weather terrace. i'll tell you how long that will stick around. you'll want to keep the umbrella handy. details coming up in your seven- day forecast.

possible signs of movement today in the fiscal cliff debate. they met privately at the white house this afternoon. their first meeting since mid- november. and also today, talk of a compromise on a political talk show. he and other republican senators, they would consider raising the top tax rates for

the wealthiest americans they believe that a compromise would be reached. >> i think we will get a deal. i think everyone realizes how important it is. our economy is moving up some. not fast enough, but just some. to be going over that cliff is just terrible. i think we will get an agreement. >> there is a growing group of folks looking at this, realizing we don't have a lot of cards as it relates to the tax issue. we have one house, that's it. i actually think that it has merit where you go in and give the president the 2% increase that he's talking about. the rate increase on the top two percent. >> just three weekremain on the countdown clock before 90% of the americans will go up as a series of the tax hikes and the spending cuts take effect unless congress agrees on a new

plan. small businesses creating the most jobs are anxiously awaiting for what's next. as they visited a bakery and cafe in silver springs, maryland. >> just $4.95. >> what did you forget? >> $9.90. >> reporter: how can a mere donut provoke such passion? >> it's a perfection. >> they need comfort food. this is what we love. the texture is incredible. >> chocolate, custard. >> vanilla custard. >> and caramel. >> no jelly. >> reporter: the donut, they are not just baked goods, but a transcending experience. >> this connects us to our culture and our traditions and the family traditions. >> reporter: at this family- owned bakery and cafe, better known as papi in the community does all the baking.

his wife shula handles the business. she feeds you and you're touched by an angel and you spell it out. >> reporter: such a magnetic draw, in fact, that they have been driving here from baltimore every week for the last four years. producing about 20,000 donuts for hanukkah in just eight days. >> whatever happens between 5:00 to 9:00 and what happens is a lot of yelling. >> reporter: the impending fiscal cliff could mean higher taxes on small businesses like this and reduced spending by uneasy customers, weary of another recession. >> what if we need to raise taxes? and people have less money because their taxes are raised

too. >> we need to make sure too as a community we stay strong and we protect our customers and our businesses. our own little government almost. >> reporter: the donuts are so fresh that the bakery repeatedly ran out until the next batch was ready. >> i just sold my last one. >> we're not going to make anymore today. i really can't. there will be a second of them. >> what else? >> i need the food tray. >> i have one left. >> if most customers can wait patiently, at times for more than an hour, maybe just maybe even bitter fiscal cliff disagreements can be negotiated. andrea mccaren, 9news. >> wow. we've got a deadly shooting near an airport. authorities in cleveland said that a man fatally shot his wife and then fired at the second person before shooting and killing himself. it occurred this morning and that employee parking lot of cleveland hopkins international airport.

>> a tsa employee was riding with another tsa employee when her estranged husband followed them into the parking lot, at which time the strange husband rammed the vehicle, got out of the vehicle, fired approximately five shots into the vehicle hitting his wife. the male, the other male that was in the vehicle was able to get out of the vehicle and was chased by the estranged husband who fired several shots at them. and he was not injured. >> the man's wife worked as a security officer of that airport. a woman from this area is struck and killed by a fire truck in kentucky. police say that the 27-year-old from the district was hit in downtown lexington by a fire truck that was not on an emergency call. the fire engine was on their way to a hospital to pick up the crew, but their lights and siren were not activated. tonight, police are reviewing the surveillance camera footage to determine what they were doing when she was struck.

tonight, howard county police are investigating the discovery of a woman's body in the woods near the 9000 block of route 1 in maryland. no obvious signs of foul play, but detectives continue to investigate tonight. a man called 911 around 4:00 this afternoon after walking near the woods and seeing the body. police believe that it may be that of a woman in her 40s reported missing a few weeks ago by a friend. investigators believe she may have been homeless. just ahead on 9news now this sunday night, residence are digging out of a powerful winter storm tonight. in this area with the weekend rain turns to dry skies and warmer temperatures this week, eric is back with the full forecast.

in the people, businesses, and organizations that call greater washington home. whether it's funding an organization that provides new citizens with job training, working with an anacostia school that promotes academic excellence, or supporting an organization

that serves 5,000 meals a day across d.c., what's important to the people of greater washington is important to us, and we're proud to work with all those who are making our communities stronger.

rain fell across our area for much of the day. folks in wisconsin were digging out tonight from nearly a foot of snow. powerful winter storms are making for a tough driving condition on highways there. residence are being warned about strong wind gusts overnight. >> a blizzard. >> yes. hopefully they are not headed here. >> no, not in our forecast. that's for sure. in fact, it is just going to be really mild over the next 24 hours or so and then big changes, they are in the forecast with a cold front on the way. let's take a look right now at live doppler radar. because we do have one pocket of heavier rain that will be moving through st. maries counties. moving into the bay. but besides that, we're pretty

much in the clear. it's just fog and mist out there. you can see that on the michael and son weather cam. this is a live shot from on top of the wusa building. 48 degrees right now, dew point is also at 48. we have fog out there. the visibility is reduced. we'll burn off the fog pretty quickly as we head into the mid- morning hours because of a southerly breeze helping to scour out that moisture. a chance for thunderstorms late in the day tomorrow behind that frontal system, a cool down in your forecast. four days to the north. 48 in d.c. and andrews. that's about as warm as it's going to get, but with the fog in place, temperatures, they are not going to get much

cooler overnight tonight. the fog helps them from dropping. right now zero in manassas, andrews, culpepper. one mile visibility in martinsburg to baltimore. a really bad night to be out on the roads. so keep in mind it's that monday morning commute that might be tough because of the foggy areas. the cold front is on the way. we won't see much of this activity helping to time out the arrival of more of these showers. that will be near hagerstown around lunchtime. the cold front will start to move through right around dinner time, the best chance for a thunderstorm that we have in our forecast that all starts to slide to the south as we head into monday evening. then on tuesday we'll start to dry out. fog and drizzle, very mild for

december though. 42, 48 your overnight lows, keeping all the moisture and also any temperature that we had, any warmth during the day in place for the overnight hours. the morning though, temperatures in the 40s and the 50s. that breeze is helping to bring in a little more heat and then it will be very warm for this time of the year as we head into the afternoon. mostly cloudy, but a chance for a few thunderstorms that are mixing in with showers. right around dinner time, the best chance that we're going to see any thunderstorm activity. so we need to go with that yellow alert tomorrow for a chance. tuesday though, cooler and breezy with the high of 51. going with the green alert here and wednesday also green with a chance for the showers and the high of 48 degrees. in your seven-day forecast, we're going to keep it dry for the most part after getting past tomorrow night's cold front. and the temperatures, they would have started to rebound just a little bit. wednesday is the coolest day in

the forecast. every other day. it'll be above normal, only getting up into the upper 40s. mid-50s with a lot of sunshine on friday is not too bad. your seven-day forecast is looking okay. o -- our producers up there are starting to call rg3 super man. it looks bad on the replay, but x-rays show a sprain. what's the stat u.s. of rg3? we'll have sports coming up next. if the politicians in washington negotiate a bad deal on the budget and deficit, what do you think will hpen to medicare and medicaid benefits? and to our coverage? cutting hundreds of billions of dollars from medicare and medicaid will short change the people who need it the most. so if you don't want seniors to come up empty. call sen. warner and tell him

don't make a bad deal that cuts our care.

rg3 knows about these king of injuries. >> yes, the same knee in 2009 at baylor. he was saying today when they asked him about the injury, how

bad to you think it is? before the mri. he said he had an acl injury before and it does not feel like that acl. he ended up being right, which is great news. he's been there before and he had to play with it before and it was just a cringe worthy moment though. you know it's been debated all week long, is this redskins ravens game really a rivalry? well no matter what side you're on, that argument, this game is one for bragging rights. more so on the line, the playoff. the ravens, they had a chance to clinch the division. redskins are just looking to keep their post-season alive today. it's the fifth time that they have met in the regular season. we start off with a big play for the redskins defense. third quarter, joe flacco blowing past michael orr, recovers it. then they do it again, but this time. flacco throws a play to london fletcher. here is
